Steward's Comments: Raced wide throughout. When questioned in relation to the performance, Jockey A. Butler stated that HEAD HONCHO was inclined to hang throughout the event which resulted in the gelding proving difficult to be fully tested. Jockey Butler further added that upon straight, his mount commenced to travel well, however had failed to respond to his riding over the concluding stages and had gone to the line in a disappointing manner, which in Jockey Butler’s opinion, was a result of being trapped wide which was over.

Steward's Comments: Change of tactics; to settle further forward in event if circumstances permitted. Settled mid-field. Shifted in shortly after the start and bumped. Raced keenly in the early stages before being steadied to avoid heels near the 1100m before continuing to race keenly for some distance after. When asked to comment, rider advised although over-racing in the early stages and the slow tempo set may have proved detrimental to the filly’s finishing chances, he was overall disappointed with the performance, adding t.
